circle. the children were not hit. five camp counselors were pinned under this treat at camp tawonga at 8:30 this morning. four were taken to local hospitals with nonlife- threatening injuries. but uc-santa cruz student originally reported missing was killed, annais rittenberg. the tree came down in an open space by the dining hall. >> an oak tree 3 feet in diameter broke off about 15 to 20 feet in the air. >> reporter: power has been cut off to part of the camp because of the incident. >> it fell down, it took down power lines, as well. pg&e had to come out, turn those lines off, and then cal fire was able to go in and start removing portions of the trees to help get those people out that were injured. >> reporter: camp tawonga is a summer camp for children on 160 acres in stanislaus national forest serving the jewish community since 1925. the san francisco-based camp says all campers are safe and

accounted for and camp is still continuing. but early word that children had been hurt sent some parents into an understandable panic. >> there were some parents i saw yes and the camp put out some type of information to the parents. >> reporter: the san francisco sheriff's family is camping nearby and ross mirkarimi stopped to see if he could help. >> it's a tragedy and word spread fast. i think it's hard to get accurate information. i thought i would come by. the tree is larger than first believed. they say it's 70 feet tall. it was 4.5 feet in diameter. 40 feet fell to the ground of the we have an update on the condition of the counselors. two are in serious but stable condition. the other two are treated and released. >> in this type of thing is

there an investigation? >> reporter: not an official authoritative investigation by the sheriff's department. they are not getting involved. but they did say that they believe that the camp would hire an arborist to take a look at the tree and find out why this did happen. >> right. see if there are any more in danger of doing the same thing. ann notarangelo, thank you so much. commuters heading home for the holiday aren't finding much to celebrate right now. chopper 5 live over the bay bridge approach where day 3 of the bart strike as you can see is taking its toll. it's going to be even slower going on the city streets. the backup on battery through the financial district started hours ago. most of those cars trying to make their way across market to the bay bridge. and for those who choose to come into the city by bus, here's what they are dealing with over at the transbay terminal. huge lines pretty much everywhere you look. >> how much longer are they going to have to wait? well, it all depends what happens inside the caltrans building in oakland where bart and the unions are back to the

bargaining table. kpix 5's phil matier is there and they have been at it for nearly five hours. >> reporter: they just took a dinner break, they are going out and coming back, didn't say much but even the fact that they are meeting is a big step from just a couple of days ago when they weren't talking to each other. let's look at the story. can't disclose any of the details but everybody is working hard. we hope to come to a resolution quickly. >> that's what's best. we want to make sure those conversations stay at the table so we can try to get a deal done as soon as possible. reporter: those were the feelings on both sides of the three-day bart strike as talks resumed today. hope in the air and with good reason because a prolonged strike could hurt both sides. bart, for example, estimates that the walkout is costing the transit district $3.9 million a week. but it's also taking a toll on the strikers, as well. >> we want to get back to work. we don't want to be out here. it's rough being out here, you know. >> reporter: that's not to say a deal will be easy or quick. but as uc-berkeley labor expert harvey shaken tells us -- >> the sides are still far apart but compromise is the

nature of collective bargaining so we're closer to a settlement than we were significantly before this took place. >> reporter: now, this is usually the time when state and local politicians start weighing in behind the scenes to try to force a deal. but with the two key issues being how much workers should pay into their pensions and into their healthcare plans, most of the heavyweight elected leaders are keeping their distance. >> no political leader wants to alienate a union as powerful as the seiu. but at the same time, they are very concerned with the broader public reaction. >> reporter: in an effort to get some public reaction, you can see that some of the strikers have shown up here at the negotiating center trying to sort of drum up continuing political and public support for their cause because they think that's key to trying to get some settlement. whether it happens tonight remains to be seen. that's the latest from here in oakland. >> a dinner break is a break.

that's good. food is good. so they are going to be back maybe a long night? >> reporter: that's the real news. that's the real news. it's just a dinner break. they are not calling it for the night. in the meantime, like i said, they're ramping up the pr machine, as well. >> i can hear it in the background. phil matier in oakland, thank you. which side are you on? we talked to more than 500 people asking them, which side has made a better case for its position? 40% nearly twice as many responders to our exclusive surveyusa poll say management has presented a better case. 23% believe the bart unions have. the bart strike has caused major headaches for people trying to get to work on time. our patrick sedillo talked to one woman who is getting help from her company to make sure she is never late. >> another day at the hotel. >> reporter: it's a long way from oakley to oakland. but oakley resident kathy mason is starting her day before sunrise in an oakland hotel. >> usually i drive to the pittsburg bart station and take bart in from there. >> reporter: her employer is renting a room closer to san

how long is it going to take to get back to oakland? reporting from san francisco, patrick sedillo, kpix 5. take a look at this. based on what's happening over at the ferry terminal right now, it could be a while. here's a live look at the lines. there's been a backup all afternoon. on the traffic maps, you can see the approach to the beijing and getting off the bay bridge -- the approach to the bay bridge and getting off the bay bridge is very, very slow. look at the red on the east bay commute, all along 80 west and east looking bad through the maze and heading for through the golden gate, getting across the bridge, very slow. we are getting our first look tonight inside the bart stations during the strike and you can see, it's a ghost town. the platforms empty, escalators not moving. the electronic signs read station is closed even though no one is around to read them. stay with kpix 5 for continuing coverage of the bart strike and the negotiations tonight. we'll have another live report coming up in a few minutes.

problems with leadership and governance, also instructional programs, libraries and other facilities were significantly out of compliance. all of this happened on the watch of the president of the ccsf board john rizzo. he tells me there was a major restructuring here recently but it has apparently fallen short. >> we followed their advice to the letter. and still it wasn't enough. i mean, the changes at city college are massive. they're massive. the cuts were massive. >> there might be students out there watching this going, wow, what's my diploma worth from city college right now? i know, and who is responsible and you know -- they called into question your governance, the way the place was run, the finances. i mean, do you owe these students an apology? >> you know. >> reporter: after running this for all these years? >> some of that was true over a year ago. uhm, but it's not true now. >> reporter: it's not clear exactly what happens next because the decision will be appealed. teachers' groups are promising

lawsuits. but what could happen if all those appeals and lawsuits don't go through, well, they will appoint somebody to take over the school district, someone other than the locally elected school board and that, liz, could happen as soon as next summer. >> yeah. this really puts a bind on students, though, joe, because a lot of them rely heavily on financial aid. >> reporter: exactly. especially, you know, community college students here and this means without accreditation they will not be able to get it and a huge concern for the many people here who -- one of the signs say, they don't want their dreams downsized especially considering it was apparently mismanagement according to this report. >> all right. joe vazquez, thank you. this week it's like disaster, you know, nothing. >> coming up, how the bart strike is crippling bay area businesses that rely on cash from commuters. >> i've lived here for 20 years and i have never seen anything like this. >> how this week's deadly shooting at a bay area restaurant might be a case of mistaken identity.

spread between ocean beach and san ramon but i love showing you this because look at the temperature difference over just 28 miles. 44 degrees. san ramon today 105, and ocean beach in san francisco, only 61 degrees. so very wide temperature spread. 4th of july tomorrow night you want to see fireworks as is often the case or as the joke goes you will not see them in the city but we'll see low cloud cover at the coast. i think right in the bay at the bay bridge we'll have good fireworks viewing. i think it will be fog-free. 65 degrees in the city. and san jose markedly milder with beautiful clear conditions for you, as well. 78 degrees for your 4th of july coming up tomorrow. as for what to expect over the next 24 hours, we have had 7 days of this. a huge ridge of high pressure parked over eastern nevada and western utah. that has been the furnace that has brought up all the warm air all the hot air from arizona, southern california, it continues to work its way inland tomorrow before this high pressure area will begin to move. when that happens something has

to replace that ridge. and that's a big area of low pressure in the gulf of alaska. when that gets here all that's going to change is the wind direction will go from southeast to west and that west wind will drag in the cool pacific air and temperatures will drop from 105 down to 85 degrees in places like san ramon. so one more hot day inland will be tomorrow independence day toasty but much cooler on friday and that means cloud cover, low cloud cover and fog returning to the bay and the coastline. san jose your high tomorrow 92. concord 99. san francisco 73. all well above average. palo alto beautiful day tomorrow high of 86. toasty in morgan hill and gilroy up to 100. 100 in pittsburg, danville, 7th day in a row. petaluma 92. berkeley 77. daly city 70. lakeport 108. ukiah 108 after a high of 111 today. markedly cooler on friday. look at the drop down to the 87

inland even cooler over the weekend. near the bay highs in the low 70s saturday, sunday and the top of next week and we'll stay in the 60s right along the coast. cooler weather coming after we're finished with tomorrow. we're still heating up over at pleasanton for the street fair there. that's where we find roberta gonzales and mobile weather tonight. >> reporter: oh, my goodness, paul, you wouldn't believe it, today we had a high temperature in pleasanton of 104 degrees for the fourth straight day. currently mobile weather reports 97 degrees but keep in mind the average high is 87 degrees. i have lived in pleasanton for over 17 years and i have to tell you it's summertime. we see a couple of days with temperatures over 100 degrees. but nothing as prolonged as six full days as we have had right now. we'll have a 7th day tomorrow. but let me show you my town. i'm really excited about this because every may, june, july and august as well as september, the very first wednesday the city of pleasanton, which is home to 75,000 people, closes down its

main street. see, there's the sign right there, pleasanton. closes its street down from 6 to 9 p.m. and invites everybody out to partake in the vendors, the barbecues, and the live band that's playing. we were wondering if the heat would keep people indoors tonight? no way! the pleasanton downtown association promises 5,000 people will be here tonight. now, i have to tell you, my photographer branson and myself, we have been going all around the bay area. we have been reporting from the san mateo county fair, we have been at the contra costa county county fire, at the alameda county fair. we have been at waterworld and great america. the number one selling food this year, right there, it's corn! people are gobbling up corn this year and they decorate it with a number of different condiments. my favorite, i have been trying the corn right here. i just throw this all over it and it is yummy. so tonight the same here in downtown pleasanton for a town with 5,000 people strong coming out to the biggest block party

in the bay area. it happens to be red, white and blue. come on out and sell bay area the 4th of july. i promise -- come on out and celebrate the 4th of july and i promise you tomorrow will be cooler at 100 degrees. roberta gonzales for kpix 5. ,,,,,,,, ,,,,,,,,,,
